DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and entirely described below with the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are just a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.


Referring to the sole figure, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal wheel rotation device, comprising a watch body, which is provided with a watch case face cover 4 and a watch case bottom cover 1 at the upper and lower ends respectively, a watch case middle frame 2 is fixedly arranged between the watch case face cover 4 and the watch case bottom cover 1, a watch movement 3 is sleeved in the watch case middle frame 2, and the watch movement 3 is engaged in the watch case middle frame 2.


An adjustment structure is provided in the middle position of one side of the watch case middle frame 2 corresponding to a watch movement button 5, the adjustment structure is fixedly connected to the watch case middle frame 2 by screws.


The right side of the watch movement 3 is provided with a watch movement button 5 and a watch movement handle head 6.


The adjustment structure comprises a fixed case 15, a rotating structure, a handle head button 9, a handle head rubber sleeve 11, a button key 12, two key springs 13 and two E-shaped retainer rings 14; the rotating structure includes a rubber ring 7, a threaded rod metal structure 8 and an external handle head 10.


The fixed case 15 is provided with a small hole in the middle, and the two sides of the small hole are provided with the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove corresponding to the handle head button 9 and the button key 12 respectively; the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove are provided with a first through hole and a second through hole corresponding to the key springs 13.


The two key springs 13 are inserted in the first through hole and the second through hole respectively, one end of the key spring 13 inserted in the first through hole is connected to the handle head button 9; one end of the key spring 13 inserted in the second through hole is connected to the button key 12; the other ends of the two key springs 13 are connected to the E-shaped retainer rings 14.


The handle head button 9 and the button key 12 are engaged in the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove respectively.


One end of the threaded rod metal structure 8 is arranged between the fixed case 15 and the watch case middle frame 2, and the other end of the threaded rod metal structure penetrates through the small hole in the middle of the fixed case 15 and is sleeved with the external handle head 10, and the external handle head 10 is sleeved with the handle head rubber sleeve 11.


The adjustment structure of the existing electronic watch is uniformly arranged on the upper right side. The design of the present disclosure changes the above structure by transferring the adjustment structure to the middle and making a major improvement in the design of the original electronic watch case. Since the original adjustment structure of the watch movement of the electronic watch is on the upper right side of the watch movement, this design transfers the adjustment structure of the watch case to the middle position. The rotating structure is composed of a rubber ring 7, a threaded rod metal structure 8 and an external handle head 10. The rotating structure drives the watch movement to adjust and rotate. The ferrule 7 is combined on the threaded rod metal structure 8, and the ferrule 7 mainly serves as an adsorption and anti-slip effect, so that the original adjustment structure of the watch movement can be driven to rotate simultaneously when the external handle head 10 rotates. The adjustment structure of the present disclosure is more convenient to use and has a more symmetrical appearance.


The above-mentioned are merely specific embodiments of the present disclosure, but the scope of protection of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Any replacement or variation that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present disclosure shall be covered by the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
